Hammarby vs Rosenborg
Hammarby
Hammarby’s Advantageous Position
Ahead of the return leg, the Swedish squad finds themselves in a highly advantageous position. Surprisingly, the team delivered a remarkably strong performance in the away fixture. Now, the task is simply to replicate that level of play in the decisive home match. Exceptional Domestic and European Form
Currently, Hammarby holds the second spot in the Swedish championship standings. Crucially, the team has finally managed to pose a significant challenge to Mjällby, who have been outstanding this season. It’s also vital to remember Hammarby’s impeccable home record this season. They boast an impressive eight victories in their last ten home fixtures – truly stellar statistics. In the Europa Conference League, they initially drew at home against Charleroi, but then demonstrated their superior quality by comfortably overcoming their opponent in the away leg.
Rosenborg
Rosenborg’s Unexpected Challenges
Traditionally, Rosenborg is regarded as one of Norway’s elite football clubs. However, the current predicament is that the Norwegians are creating problems for themselves in their domestic league. This season, the team has failed to secure a win in any of their crucial matches. Dreadful Away Record and Past Opponents
Overall, the team currently occupies fifth place in the league, having played one more match than their upcoming opponent. Furthermore, Rosenborg’s away form is simply dreadful. They have suffered four defeats in their last nine away matches within Norway. In their most recent fixture, against KFUM, they surprisingly conceded four goals without putting up much resistance. While the team confidently dispatched Banga in the previous round, it’s worth noting that the Lithuanian side was exceptionally weak. Overall Outlook and Key Player Insight
Hammarby has been performing exceptionally well this season, genuinely contending for the league title. Their home form has been nothing short of perfect, even by Swedish standards. In the previous round, they managed to overcome a very tough opponent. Moreover, in their most recent league match, they secured a clean sheet victory even away from home. Lindberg and Collinder are expected to be unavailable for the squad. However, Besara is in excellent form and scored in their last outing.
